V "The. tract of land presented to the Grand Tarlor Is admirably Bulted to the purpose for , which It is designed and we find that members of our order are gen erally well pleased with the prospect of having such an Institution . established. We believe that the most practical man ner of maintaining this home when es tabllshed, and maintaining and improv Ing the lands, prior to Its establishment Is ty the levy of a per capita tax by the Orand Parlor, though; eventually the homo can be largely self-sustaining. ; We Deiieve that the most prudent and eco nomical method of establishing this home will be to begin the 'Improvement f the. property at once and continue It each year untiF the home is put Into active operation. We suggest ' that the first year's appropriation be; made Buf- . ficiently large to enable the board Of grand officers to employ a . competent landscape gardener and an engineer to make permanent ground plans for" the buildings, drives, walks, orchards, vlne-aj Js, and gardens. FAVORS SMALL TAX "To the end that this expense may be .distributed so as to Impose the least possible burden upon the order, we recommend tbat a tax of ten cents, per capita jbe levied at this and each succeeding , session of the Grand Parlor as long as the same shall be ' required." ON LAKE TRIP. Starting shortly after 9 o'clock this morning, upward of 250 delegates to the Grand Parlor, Native Sons of the Golden West, embarked on a pleasure trip around Lake Tahoe.

Bunker defended him self last night from attacks made against him of injustice to ;W. H. -Bryan, re leased as -chemistry teacher at the high school at the-end of the present semes ter. His reply followed a statement to the board , of education by Bryan In which the latter alleged .Bunker had delayed so long in telling him of his dismissal as to prevent his finding a new position; Bryan request for reins tatemefit was taken under consideration by the board. tiryan, wno was representea Dy coun cil. stated to the board that he was appointed; to his position July 16, 1909, coming here from the Palo Alto high school. He was given to understand, he admitted, j that he was filling the place of a man who was away, but declared that It was also I understood he was to retain the position pending the return of tlie regular instructor. .He was given more work, he aJleged, than' he had ever had before, and that even this was in creased at the beginning of the present semester. No cotnplaint had ever been made of !his work by Superintendent Bunker, until May 19 when Bunker told him, he alleged, that his ability and per sonality did not fit him to continue In his position and thathe was not to be renamed. I Bryan concluded by saying that this: summari- notice was hurtful to his reputation as a teacher, .difficult as it was to explain away, and that It came the term as , to make it i in to find another" posi- ix no ODDOsltlon Grand President Daniel A.

He said VI t is my business, as superintendent of schools in Berkeley, to Increase the efficiency of the schools by securing the best individual teachers Available. That there was any agreement for the' con tinuance of Mr. Bryan beyond a vear. emphatically deny, because. I cannot tell when a new man comi to me whether he is capable of helping me maintain that efficiency or ho. It ls-im possible to promise a new man ' anything and Bryan, considering his 'famil iarity with matters, of school work, ought to know this. If we take a risk, as certainly we do, in mrlng a new eacher, it is no more than fair that e also take the risk of not being re appointed. "If we suppose -that I had told Mr. Bryan four months before the end of thej term that he n-as to be dismissed, If must Immediately be evident c that I woiild have Judged him too quickly and after a trial of really but (five teaching months. My attitude has always been. case not excepted,' to defer to the possible moment j the passing of judgment on a. new man, to give him every chance In the world. This caution is due to an understanding of the importance of saving In every - way a teacher s reputation, which .Is his only stock in trade. SAX RAFAEfi, June 8. A missing oar; blood stains In the bottom of a boat, and the mysterious disappearance of Jose Selis Jr., eon of ;a Tomales: rancher, led to the arrest of Pablo Sossa, late Jast night on suspicion of murder. Sossa and Sells left Marshall Sunday morning in a row boat on the Tomales bay, for the home of Sossa at Tomales. They took several bottles of beer and a bottle of whiskey with them, and a basket of lunch. That evening Sossa. returned to Mar shals alone.

The father noticed blood stains In the bottom of the boat and on the lunch basket. He ; questioned Sossa more closely, but could not receive a satisr factory explanation. His suspicions be came aroused and he at once notified Sheriff Taylor ; at San Rafael, who detailed Deputy Sheriff Peter Crane to ar rest Sossa, The man was brought here late last night in an automobile, and lodged in the I county Jail. - He . told the following story this morning: We went out In the. boat and had a fight.

(tried to make It very easy for Mr. Bryan to quit when I had finally con cluded that he was not 'strong enough for his position. I suggested to him thatj he might gracefully withdraw by letting It be understood he had taken the position only, for a year as a substitute for the man who had left. I told him also that I -would gladly rec ommend him to another place he might desire. It must be seen, therefore, that whatever damage his 1 reputation may hav4 suffered is due to his own lnitia-. tive in giving his dismissal the publicity GUN SMITH , DIES AT TORONTO World Famous Savant Was Tutor to Late King of England.
